As noted on the Bethesda Blog, the first patch for Fallout: New Vegas is now available automatically through Steam, where word is: "This update fixes quest and scripting issues." They say they are working on getting the console versions of Obsidian's RPG sequel patched as soon as possible, and also announce that the issue with PlayStation 3 digital preorder bonuses is now resolved.

All in all, still not liking it as much as FO3. I keep waiting for it to actually, like, take off, and show me something awesome. So far it's been one abandoned outpost after the other, or the occasional outpost with 2 bandits in it. :\

That's my experience as well. I'm not hating it - in fact I'm having a really good time - but I don't see yet what other people are talking about when they say it's way better than FO3.
